Not having monte carlo at 1 should be considered a crime

[–] RealVenom@aussie.zone 8 points 1 year ago

Based on everyone's responses, there is definitely no list until we go hottest 100 on cookies and determine the real list.

Absolutely flabbergasted. How can you put a Monty behind arrowroot and lemon crisp.

What about Venetians?! Having Monte Carlos so low should be a crime.

[–] zorlan@aussie.zone 5 points 1 year ago

Like many others here I actually enjoy the Monte Carlo, I won't contest Kingston up the top though.

The author has never actually eaten these biscuits I reckon.

Maybe my palate has changed but I find all of the current Arnotts biccies are pale imitations of their former selves.

Orange cream is actually pretty good.

Arnotts Coffee scrolls were the most delicious biscuit ever. Biscuit of my childhood and wish they'd make a comeback.

I thought choc ripple were only for smothering in whipped cream to make a choc ripple cake. Does anyone actually eat them as biscuits??

One of my kids took a while to be able to handle dairy. These things allowed him to have chocolate bikkies. Every other brand I found at the time had dairy in them.

Monte Carlo is the devil's cookie... Praise be to Kingston...

[–] elkazz@aussie.zone 1 points 1 year ago

Choc-dipped Scotch Finger is where it's at.

[–] CordanWraith@aussie.zone 1 points 1 year ago

I actually agree with this list, although I would put arrowroot above lemon crisp and Monte Carlo right at the bottom.

The best Arnott’s biscuits are the Arnott’s Farmbake Peanut Brownie; annoyingly made in Australia but not sold in Australia.
